Vianney Summer Camps
We want to support academic and athletic fitness this summer without compromising the health and safety of our community. That's why we are postponing all summer camps on our campus through Sunday, June 28. This includes all grade school, incoming freshman, and returning player camps. Vianney is currently reviewing if camps can be held on campus in July or transform into a virtual experience. We will notify families if and when camps can be held in compliance with the guidelines set forth by St. Louis County Government . You will receive a full refund if a camp is cancelled because we are unable to host a later date or virtual experience or your son is no longer able to attend.
Summer Opportunities
Our Counseling Department has compiled college and career prep opportunities for our students to pursue this summer.
Service Hours
Freshmen and Sophomores have until December 31, 2020 to complete their service hour requirements for the 2019-2020 school year. In addition, Class of 2024 and Class of 2023 can begin their service hour requirements now for the 2020-2021 school year. All completed service hours must be submitted for verification through Helper Helper .
